    Ferrari engine in the back of that [Kevin Magnussen's] Haas - I don't know what the issue is. The Ferrari power unit letting him down.

  11. Virtual safety car deployed again.

  12. Kevin Magnussen doesn't have a chance of catching Esteban Ocon now, as the Dane has stopped out on track.

    "It is starting to get critical that we get past Ocon."

  14. Kevin Magnussen is told by Haas it's starting to get critical - get 10th place from Esteban Ocon.

  15. The image of Max Verstappen volleying his rear tyre last year is obviously one Red Bull do not want to see a repeat of.

    Nulla: This porpoising needs to be sorted before someone suffers serious health issues.

  17. Team radio - to Verstappen

    "Max the last lap was a 47.5. You know full well what it is like to lose a race here. Lap target is 48.0."

  18. Ferrari's Charles Leclerc speaking about his engine failure on Sky Sports: "I heard something. We need to look into that so it doesn't happen again. I don't find the right words to describe it - it is very disappointing. We need to look into it.

    "We have been fast at the start of the season without big problems, and we have made changes for the better. I don't have the full picture about what happened today, but it hurts."

  19. The bouncing down the straight in the Mercedes for Lewis Hamilton looks painful.

  20. Lewis Hamilton is almost three seconds behind Pierre Gasly in fourth but is that back pain going to hinder the seven-time world champion in the remaining laps of this race?
